The Hallyu wave proves its reach again!
Korean music giants – BoA, f(x), Kangta, and Super Junior – received much love from Chinese fans as they reached the dragon land on May 30th to attend the Shanghai World Expo music festival on the same night.
It was reported that many fans waited for their Korean idols early at the airport, but security was still controlled. However, when the Korean stars were finally visible to the fans, it was ultimate pandemonium.
BoA alone was escorted by five to six guards. Kangta and f(x) were surrounded by fans and security had a hard time gathering these stars in the center, away from the fans. One even used his torch to stop the fans from taking photos.
When it was Super Junior’s turn, the usually peaceful airport turned into a fans-vs-security war zone. The number of security guards were nothing as to the huge crowd welcoming their idols. It was even said that Super Junior fans managed to block off exit points, making it even harder for the security and the idols themselves.
Because of the huge crowd, Super Junior members were forced to split up, but their journey came to a deadlock at the airport’s entrance. Completely chaotic, the security could not avoid to use force against the fans for the boys’ safety. Still dedicated, the fans never gave up and followed their idols to the where the idols parked their car.
After all the Korean artists left the airport, the place was all back to normal mode. Perhaps, the security group might have taken a long-deep, well-deserved sigh.
